Garvin County woman and friend arrested for allegedly framing husband with child porn
Pauls Valley, Okla. (KOKH) — Garvin County deputies say a woman and her friend were arrested for allegedly framing her husband with child porn.
Investigators say the woman was mad at her estranged husband, took 900 screenshots of naked children with his phone, and went to the police.
Documents show last month, Lacey Husks asked her friend Angel Moore to help with a revenge plot against her soon-to-be ex-husband, Brandon Husks.
"This is kind of a crazy deal because there is a plot against a man over custody of children," Garvin County Sheriff Jim Mullett said.
Mullett says Husks was upset because Brandon Husks may get custody of their children in the divorce.
Officers say Husks used Brandon's old cellphone and took over nine hundred screenshots of child porn from the internet.
"The women got together and thought to conspire to put him in jail and get him out of the picture," Mullett said.
Documents say Moore went to Wynnewood police with the phone to turn Brandon in.
"She thought it was the right thing to do and it ended up being the wrong thing to do," Mullett said. "The female who came up with the idea, she is uncooperative. She doesn’t want to talk."
Investigators say it didn't take long for them to unravel the women's story.
"These two females came up the idea and plotted to make this happen and it backfired," Mullett said. "Now, they are the ones looking at some jail time for this."
Both Husks and Moore are charged with conspiracy and false reporting.
Husks is also in jail for possession of child porn.
"This is unacceptable to me," Mullett said. "This is disturbing because they are conspiring to put someone in jail for the rest of their life. They are exploiting children in order to do that."
Moore is out of jail and Husks is still in jail on a $250,000 bond.
